Abstract
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein lokales Netzwerk mit mehreren Sub-Netzwerken und mehreren Brücken-Terminals, welche jeweils zur Übertragung von Daten zwischen den Terminals von wenigstens zwei Sub-Netzwerken über ein drahtloses Medium vorgesehen sind. Ein Brücken-Terminal ermittelt nach Inbetriebnahme die erreichbaren Sub-Netzwerke und erstellt eine Liste mit Gruppen, die jeweils n Elemente als Kennung für die Sub-Netzwerke enthalten, aus allen erreichbaren m Sub-Netzwerken, wobei m > n und n > 1 ist. Die Gruppen in der Liste werden nach einem vorgegebenen Kriterium sortiert. Es werden dann die Sub-Netzwerke durch das Brücken-Terminal verbunden, deren Kennung in der ersten Gruppe der sortieren Liste aufgeführt ist. The invention relates to a local area network with a plurality of subnetworks and a plurality of bridge terminals, which are each provided for the transmission of data between the terminals of at least two subnetworks via a wireless medium. After commissioning, a bridge terminal determines the accessible sub-networks and creates a list of groups, each containing n elements as identifiers for the sub-networks, from all accessible m sub-networks, where m> n and n> 1. The groups in the list are sorted according to a specified criterion. The sub-networks are then connected by the bridge terminal, the identification of which is listed in the first group of the sorted list.
